Greetings from PowerAnime!
Amerasian Mulatto here. Don't be discouraged if
you see my name on EBay. I'm a good paying
customer like anyone else out there... check the
feedback.
I totally agree with anyone who says some of the
prices might be slightly inflated as I've noticed
a couple of DB cels on my site that cost way more
than I would pay for them, personally... but I
guess a cel is only worth as much as the amount
someone's willing to part with, IMHO.
For all those that might ask, yes I do resell
cels as a hobby, as well as collect, like any
other online cel dealer on the web. I just use
resources that are more available to me. Is it
bad that I try to give others overseas an
opportunity to own a peice of original anime
art? If you want to pound on people who are
trying to gain profits off of selling cels,
attack the YJ deputy services... they basically
charge you anywhere between 10-25% of the final
auction sale for doing what? bidding on an item?
its not even their responsibility to make sure
the merchandise is even in good condition. At
least when I get a cel I can at least grade it to
see if its even worth reposting.
I do admit grabbing a few cels from YJ and trying
to resell them, but only in the light of trying
to pay for my webhosting costs and start an
actual brick and mortar anime biz. Trying to
earn a living off of anime isn't a sin. As a
matter of fact, I applaud all those who are bold
enough to even try to make anything they enjoy
most a part of their means of living.
As far as a personal collection, I have it posted
in my 'About Me' page. Its small, but more dear
to me than anything anime.
Ya see? I'm not such a bad guy. Who knows? My
lil anime biz is growing, and one day, I might
have a cel you want (if anymore good ones are
still available...). If you're in town for the
Anime Expo in Cali, swing by Delia's booth! I'll
be there if anyone really wants to sit down and
talk about anything troubling them about
PowerAnime.
Enjoy!
